Zusammenfassung:A data center infrastructure management (DCIM) system having an infrastructure control fabric (ICF) subsystem for enabling a manager component of an independent computing device to communicate directly with the DCIM system. The DCIM system, in one embodiment, may have a manageability subsystem engine for monitoring data being transmitted from the independent computing device. A domain model may be included that has an extension relating to information on the independent computing device. A services server may be used which provides a shared services infrastructure layer. The ICF subsystem may have components located in each of the manageability subsystem engine, the domain model, on the services server, and in the manager component of the independent computing device, to enable the independent computing device to directly query the DCIM system to obtain at least one of real time power, cooling and space information that is useful for the independent computing device to know before at least one of initiating an operation or continuing with an operation.
